  • Really interesting -I'd like to know if anyone has tried this method but using the Solfeggio Frequencies??

    I think that would be an interesting thing to test

  • To start with a frequency of interest and THEN get a pattern, you would have to trim and/or weight the vibrating plate until it resonated. Another interesting direction to go is to try different shapes of plate, and see how that affects the pattern and frequency response.

  • interesting travelling holes, but to get the cool patterns, I think you used too much salt, your plate is not hard enough so it adds its own noise, and you are not pausing for long enough on many frequencies to see if a pattern emerges...

  • @Seefood73 Yeah, i have much better tests somewhere in here, with a larger more rigid aluminum plate. This was something of a first pass series to get a sense of the test space.

  • hey,ive got a question...does this only work with those annoying sounds? i understand it's the frequencies that do this,but if we use a simple rock song or something would it work? i wanna try and see what music looks like, what kind of experiment do u think would work for that??

  • You get a pretty pattern from pure tones; with music or other "noisy" input, I doubt you would get anything visually striking. The waveform is shifting far too quickly to set up any good standing wave patterns, and it takes time for the grains to shift.

    It would not hurt to TRY, but I think you'd mostly get visual noise, like the pattern you see on an untuned TV.

  • They recently killed viruses in living organisms with high frequency resonance.

  • Awesome!

  • yeah ure right it doesnt really work. ive tried doing it, and i got nothing.... so i thought i'd ask to see (thinking i was doing it wrong)... thanks anyway :)

  • A signal generator feeding a car audio amplifier, feeding a speaker that I butchered out of a discarded home stereo speaker box.
